Customs and habits about the Spring Festival

1, gathering talents

It is said that the first day of the first month is the birthday of a broom, so you can't use a broom on this day, otherwise it will ruin your fortune, attract a "broom star" and cause bad luck. If you must sweep the floor, you must sweep it from the outside to the inside. Don't throw water on the garbage on this day, for fear of breaking the money. Today, this custom still remains in many places. Don't put a broom or take out the garbage on New Year's Eve. Prepare a big barrel of waste water to avoid splashing outside that day.

2. New Year greetings

Visiting relatives and friends is a way to celebrate the New Year. Paying New Year greetings is an important activity in the Spring Festival, and it is also a way for people to express their best wishes to each other. They visit relatives and friends, pay New Year greetings to each other, and say congratulations on getting rich, happiness and so on. The meaning of New Year's greetings is to visit relatives and friends, congratulate each other on the New Year, and express feelings for relatives and friends and good wishes for life in the new year.
